TOP FIVE OAU FEMALE STUDENTS' HAIRSTYLES YOU NEED TO TRY THIS SEMESTER 

Omolayo Olufayo 


The semester has been the most rigorous so far and having to pack and unpack hair can be time-consuming and also tiring because you could run out of styles, especially if you have short hair. The following are possible options for protective styles that would save you some time:



 BRAIDS 


There are different types of braids: Box braids, butterfly braids, short braids, knotless braids etc 
A knotless braid is the most recent variation of braids popular among Africans for protection and for retaining hair. It is less painful due to the looseness of its hold from the roots. About two to three packs of big X-pression extensions should be enough to rock this look. A bonus is that it's very light. Trust me, you don't need heavy hair this semester.



FAUX LOCS 


Faux Locs are not like braids that look fresh when they are just made. The older faux locs gets the prettier it becomes. They require an easy maintenance routine. They can also be rewashed for continuous usage, unlike attachments.



CROCHET 


They are in the same category as faux locs though not completely similar. They are usually installed on corn rows. There are easy DIY videos on YouTube where installation has been made easy for even beginners. This is one protective style that can grow your hair.



NATURAL HAIR TWISTS 


People with natural hair or even unrelaxed hair usually enjoy this protective style. It is cost friendly because all the materials are all on your head, although some people like to add some Afro Extensions



CORNROWS 


Alicia Keyz rocked this hairstyle to express Afrocentrism. It is a low-maintenance style that is durable for a particular period, especially the exam period. With the adequate laying of edges, It brightens up.



WIGS 


A large percentage of OAU students have at least one wig that covers up the (hideous) hair underneath. Some wigs have been through hell in the hands of their elder sisters and passed on to them(lol). Some even go to extent of borrowing wigs. It's very durable and easy to maintain especially if it's not a full frontal wig. You don't have that time to install a full frontal wig so a 4×4 or 6×6 will be just okay.



LOW CUT 


This takes the hair off your list of worries. It's cost-free after the first cut and doesn't require further styling. It's easy peasy because wigs can be worn on them when you feel bored with the same look. A bonus to this look is the improvisation of appearance.


Looks are the least you should be worried about this semester, hence the above list. Beyond this, the most important thing is confidence.
Rock that university look with pride! 
Good luck with the upcoming exams.

By  Adetunji Oluwafemi The Great Ife Students’ Union on Monday, 3rd November 2024, held its planned inter-faculty debate for freshmen. The debate is part of the events that have been prepared for Fresher’s Week 2024. The event experienced a slight delay, as the venue was moved from the 1000-seater to Oduduwa Hall by the order of the school management, which requested that the initial venue be vacated because the office of the Vice President, responsible for the event, failed to seek permission before using it. The event began at 12:35 PM. Faculties were paired and assigned topics: the Faculty of Administration and Science had the topic "Corrupt Democracies are Preferable to Dictatorships"; the Faculty of Agriculture and Dentistry debated on the topic "Subsidy is a Necessary Compromise of the Government, and Should be Implemented in Areas of Essential Public Domains"; the Faculty of Arts and Technology had the topic "Civil Disobedience is a Moral Wea...

MOREMI HALL: A Tale of Night Stories: When Will It End? In the quiet corridors of Moremi Hall, a disturbing series of events has shaken the residents, raising questions about security and the unknown intentions of an elusive intruder.   It all started two weeks ago when the inhabitants of Moremi Hall were awoken to the cry of a lady, "Ole! Ole! (the Yoruba name for thief). At exactly 5:00 am, a guy who was wearing a mask was seen darting across the corridors. He was said to have stolen phones, and while he tried to escape, he was seen by some ladies who raised the alarm.   An eyewitness who will like to remain anonymous said he ran out of the kitchen and jumped down from the second floor to the ground. He sustained minor injuries, and to reduce the chase, he let go of the phones, which he had put in black nylon.   The Moremi residents were able to recover their phones, but he escaped through a gutter, and no one knows where he went. The porters were informed i...
